"According to photohistorian Brock Silversides, Mathers was Edmonton's only photographer for several years, including the first two years of the Klondike Gold Rush. In 1901, three years after photographing stampeders departing by boat from Athabasca Landing, Mathers made his own epic journey of discovery along the same rivers followed by some of the Edmonton goldseekers." Camera Workers, 1858-1950.
